Answer: Once upon a time, there lived a foolish cat. The cat used to try to sniff everything. Even if it had a bad odor. One day when the cat went out to play, He saw a butcher's shop. The butcher was an ordinary man, except that he was blind. The cat wanted to go and sniff the knife. So the foolish cat went to sniff the knife while the butcher was cutting the meat.
